The Ulysse Nardin Lady Diver Starry Night (Ref. 8163-182B1-3A/3A) blends celestial elegance with professional dive capability.

Designed for women who demand both precision and grace, this watch stands out as a rare fusion of functional dive tool and haute couture timepiece.
Case Gem-Set Bezel Crafted with Precision
The polished and satin-brushed stainless steel case is sized at 39 mm and just ~11.25 mm thick, heightening comfort without sacrificing rigidity. Water-resistant to 300 meters (30 ATM), it is topped with a bezel set with brilliant-cut diamonds that add refined sparkle while protecting the concave rotating function.
Magical Mother‑of‑Pearl Aventurine Dial
At the heart of this timepiece lies a hand-finished dial combining luminous mother-of-pearl and deep-blue aventurine—creating a cosmic effect reminiscent of a starry night sky. Meticulously applied diamond indices enhance the luminous dial, while polished steel hands and markers ensure legibility and elegance.
Reliable Performance: UN‑816 Movement
Underneath the celestial façade, the Lady Diver Starry Night houses the in-house UN‑816 automatic calibre, based on the Sellita SW‑300 but augmented with a silicon escapement for heightened accuracy. Beating at 4 Hz and offering approximately 42 hours of power reserve, it delivers both grace and resilience.
Comfort Strap: Leather Elegance
This /3A variant comes fitted with a matching blue rubber strap for a more active, aquatic lifestyle, harmonizing with the dial’s deep tones. It secures with a stainless steel pin buckle engraved with the Ulysse Nardin anchor. There is also a /1A version available with a white alligator leather strap.
